Whether inside the A320 the GPWS and EGPWS are in fact two separate systems, or - as the acronym would suggest - the enhanced functions are built atop the core GPWS is not known. There are no technical reasons why RA failure should affect EGPWS. I am not saying they don't on the aeroplane, that's down to internal logic.
